My students can use Makecode to code Adafruit Circuit Playground Express for capacitive touch.  
They tried today to use the newer Makecode for our new Bluefruit to make a capacitive touch project and only found buttons. They just want to touch the alligator clips connected to the pins. Are we looking in the wrong place or coding wrong? I’m fairly new at this - so thanks for your help!

I’m checking on this…I’ve not tried it myself, but I’ll poke around to find someone who has.

Unfortunately, it looks like the captouch library doesn’t work with Bluefruit and we don’t appear to have a workaround at this time. I’m so sorry.
